Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup ice cubes
  • 1/4 cup whiskey
  • 2 tablespoons simple syrup or honey syrup for added sweetness
  • 1/2 lemon lemon juice freshly squeezed

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

  1. Gather all ingredients: ice cubes, whiskey, simple syrup, and freshly squeezed lemon juice.
  2. Add the ice cubes to the blender until it’s about three-quarters full.
  3. Pour the whiskey over the ice, followed by the simple syrup and lemon juice.
  4. Secure the lid and blend on high speed for about 20-30 seconds until the mixture is slushy, with a granular, icy texture and a slight frosty sheen.
  5. Stop the blender and check the consistency; it should be thick and scoopable but not fully frozen solid.
  6. Pour the slushie into chilled glasses, letting the icy, granular mixture mound slightly over the rims.
  7. Optionally, garnish with a lemon twist or a sprig of fresh herbs for presentation and aroma.
  8. Serve immediately with a straw or small spoon and enjoy the cool, spicy flavors with each sip.

Notes

Adjust sweetness or alcohol content to taste. For a smoother texture, pulse the mixture a few more seconds if needed.
